EliteFTS Darkside Open Bottom Sweatpants

The concept of the Darkside can be interpreted in a variety of ways. At elitefts, the term is in part rooted in unconventional approaches to strength training taken by many associated with the company during the formative years of the business. Several of our earliest supporters and contributors constantly  looked for new ways to get athletes stronger, often via the interpretation, re-interpretation, and integration of Russian methods. Some of these interpretations and their resulting training approaches were highly unconventional within popular powerlifting training dogma at the time, so the term “Darkside” was an appropriate compliment to the world of elitefts’ experimental strength denizens.

Of course, that’s not the only application of the term “Darkside.” It could refer to the head space one might enter before big lifts. It might reference a particular mentality towards competing. It could be many things, but there’s no doubt about it—serious strength training comes with a Darkside.
